Lovely bike got mine in1979 put half fairing on it,crash bars front and back ,with top box.It was a fantastic touring bike with great economy. lovely video thanks

Thanks for your comments yours must have been new in 79. I just love the thing to bits It's just different from all the others out there. .

@@captbarb6642 It was a couple of years old R reg and the previous owner sprayed it a ford metallic purple. Loved the bike only paid £300 for it, the only bit I didn't like were the brakes, either all or nothing😊 but still a great sounding bike, I had the simson 50 and the Mz 125 as well, I really liked the bikes at the time. Glad you have kept one for future riders to enjoy basic motorbike riding.

Amazing - that's super brilliant! Perfection!

[@captbarb6642]

Thanks Jeff it's been a nice project I think anybody could do one of these bikes it's great fun to ride being two stroke .

Looking good, sounding great, job well done, probably not many of these left now. The tank reminds me of a Honda CB72. They made a great job of the speedo/tacho mounts, very simple neat design.

[@captbarb6642]

I wonder who copied who as far as the silver tank bits go .

[@harrylor66]

@@captbarb6642 The design of the Supa 5 was "borrowed" from the Honda models of the 1960s. At the end of the 70s, it naturally looked "a bit old-fashioned"😉😁

[@misiekvuychik3768]

Many years ago I have exactly same mz. With chrome plates on tank. I replaced TS engine with ETZ engine.

[@captbarb6642]

Thanks so you still wish you had it today .

[@julianroberts9757]

Absolutely stunning, well done. I had a 1980 TS and restored it. Great little bikes and loads of fun. 🫡

[@captbarb6642]

Have you still got it

[@julianroberts9757]

Sadly, no. Sold it 6 years ago for £1.7k

[@tombartram7384]

Fab looking bike! Personally I always preferred the smaller TSs, currently own 1986 125 Alpine, condition like yours. Only cost a grand. Love it.

[@captbarb6642]

Couldn't agree more just love the thing to bits

Danke 🙏

[@harrylor66]

And now we want to see a tour of East Anglia on the Supa 5!😁😁😁

[@captbarb6642]

Thanks for your response I did have a running issue but after adjusting float height and main jet needle height it revs cleanly with no bogging down .So it will get some use in the future .

[@harrylor66]

@@captbarb6642 I am pleased that the machine is now running well and I am sure that you will solve all the problems.👍🙂 I look forward to more with your Supa 5.🙂🙃 The Supa 5 will never be as significant as a "Brough Superior"😉😁😉, but in this day and age it is something special I think.🙂😉

[@BikeEyeView]

That’s a lovely bike ! I love the way you raised the seat with the rubber mounts. I have a TS250 4 speed and would love to do the same with my seat. Can you tell me where you got them please ?

[@captbarb6642]

Thanks for your reply I can tell you they are rubbers from a refrigeration compressor , if you know a fridge engineer ask him . Do you live near Norfolk?

[@BikeEyeView]

Yes, l live near Great Yarmouth

[@captbarb6642]

Right in that case I will find some for you I work in Yarmouth some days I travel from diss direction to Yarmouth . Can I message you directly?

[@captbarb6642]

Well if you read this I have some compressor rubbers for your seat if you would like them let me know .

[@BikeEyeView]

[@captbarb6642]

It's a pun to the movie with the GP racer who defected and sold his sole to Suzuki and paid the price in the end. Ernest Degnar. The missile from the East

[@duncanmacpherson2013]

No commentary just stupid music

[@captbarb6642]

Have you not seen the movie the missile from the East . If you watch my other vids there's plenty of talking.
